Beautiful new limited CD from Glasgow’s Alistair Crosbie (Eye Shaking Kingdom/Space Weather et al). A bit of a departure for Crosbie, I’ve Never Had  A Face is a single minimal piece for keyboard and electronic treatments  that has an evocative early music feel and a very English atmosphere, recalling everything from the music of William Byrd through the Canterbury sound and the settings of Dolly Collins. An interesting parallel to the electric Albion stylings of Space Weather and one of Crosbie’s most transfixing compositions. 

Three extended tracks of violently overloaded guitar from Glasgow’s Alistair Crosbie, recorded August/September 2010. Aspects of Haino/Fushitsusha in the way the strings are submerged and dissolve in the endless layers of fuzz, giving it a distant doom/drone atmosphere that is particularly thunderous. But who’s that on the cover?!
